So now 20 year olds have the expertise to lecture to us? I see this column as both denial and whistling past the graveyard. Governor Palin would have a built-in base of perhaps 50-80 million voters before she even declared. What do you think?

Reminds me of republicans who were begging for Obama to win, even voted for him in the primary because they thought he would be the easiest to beat..how did that work out..yeah exactly my point.

I will pray that the Nutroots will get their wish. Palin will eat these fools alive.

Independents will not vote for Obama again, at least very few anyway. Little of what brought out the youth and minority vote for Obama in such massive numbers will still be applicable. We will have already had the first black candidate, Obama isn’t hip anymore in any way, he has shown himself to be a massive failure with the economy, and he has really blown it in a spectacular way with the BP spill. Finally, he has not brought the troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Obama will get his arse handed to him by Palin.

A little walk down memory lane: Thinking that Ronald Reagan was a ticket to a second term, Jimmy Carter felt sadness in 1979 that Reagan had little chance to be the Republican nominee, according to U.S. News & World Report:

White House political strategists have concluded—regretfully—that Ronald Reagan is fading and will have little chance of winning the Republican presidential nomination in 1980. Why the regrets? Because Carter's aides are convinced that the conservative, 68-year-old former California governor is an easy target. (April 2, 1979)

Historic Whispers: Ronald Reagan Had Little Chance of Winning the Primary

What I think is that for all the love for Palin, I’m looking for actual evidence that she can win a presidential race.

I’m not even sure what kind of evidence there CAN be at this point. Old articles that show someone thought Reagan would lose doesn’t cut it—one can find such articles about every presidential candidate who ever ran.

So what do people see as indicators that she can win—I don’t mean just that one LIKES her, but that she can win?

Sarah Palin may be more unpopular than ever before . . .

According to whom?? The leftists she TERRIFIES!!?????

[fkabuckeyesrule]

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. When it comes to Sarah Palin and The Left. Watch what they DO not what they SAY. They will tell us who they truly fear by their ACTIONS. Not their WORDS.

Sarah Palin may be more unpopular than ever before,

Another idiotic, wet behind the ears member of the notorious journoLIST cabal, spews out coordinated, loony left talking points. So what's new?
